At least two arrests were made in Pasadena when a ploy to get homeless people to queue up for the new iPhones went spectacularly wrong , the Telegraph reports.
An overnight campout for the new iPhone became chaotic when two men were arrested for fighting outside an Apple Store in California, and a man's plan to hire homeless people to wait in a queue for the coveted devices backfired, authorities said.
Dozens of people recruited at a downtown Los Angeles homeless shelter to buy iPhones in bulk at a Pasadena store were left unpaid, and they mobbed the man who had hired them, Pasadena police Lieutenant Jason Clawson said.
One of the homeless men was restrained for 72 hours after running into the street in an enraged state, Clawson said. Television news footage showed police breaking up several scuffles and calming down furious customers.
